Merry Christmas from the doctors and staff of Johnson Optometric Associates!! This year, we present a dramatic reading of a slighty-altered ‘Twas the Night Before Christmas, where Dr. May & Dr. Martin successfully treat Santa Claus for a very serious eye problem!! We hope you enjoy, and more importantly, have a great Christmas season!

Written by Andrew May & Barrett Martin

‘Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the office,
Drs. Martin and May were both feeling cautious
For the day had gone by without a single eye worry,
Narry a red eye or eyes that were blurry;
The sweet kindly staff were all manning the lobby,
While visions of sugar plums made them feel groggy,
And Martin in his sweater, and May in his hat,
Had just settled down for a clinical chat
When through the front door there arose such a clatter,
Staff sprang from their chairs to see what was the matter.
Away to the front they both flew like a flash,
While Cara checked insurance asking Santa for cash.
His eye was as red as his large Santa suit,
And he told us the pain was very acute
When, what to our wondering eyes should appear,
His merry jolly face had become one of fear,
“The children,” he said, “they must get their toys,
For they’ve all been such good little girls and boys.
For if I can’t see, my sleigh I can’t fly,
Not even Rudolph’s nose is as red as my eye”
So we patted his back and we gave him a grin
“You’ll be fine, Santa, just come on in”
He sat in our chair and he looked a bit stressed
“Before we get started we have one request.”
We pulled out our phones and we opened an app
And we each took a selfie on Santa’s lap
As we looked in his eye it became very plain
Under his lid was a large candy cane
Now Martin turned to May and he said, “Holy cow!”
“Have you seen this before?” “Not until now!!”
“Call Hammond, call Hartman, and call Dr. Bob”
“We need their advice to help with this job”
While May put in drops, Martin stayed on the phone
While they worked on a plan to solve the unknown
Hammond exclaimed, “How did that fit?”
While Dr. Hartman had to admit
That in 38 years he’d never before
Seen anything like that come through his door
Dr. Bob said, “We’ve got to be swift.
So that Santa can go to deliver his gifts.”
So Martin and May, with all of their might
Worked to get Santa back to his night
They pulled and they tugged, Santa said “Ho, ho, ho!”
“Now that you’re finished I’m ready to go”
He sprung to his sleigh, to his team gave a whistle,
And away they all flew, like the down of a thistle:
But I heard him exclaim, ere he drove out of sight-
“Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night!”

Drs. Martin and May have a special reminder and announcement for their presidential campaign in 2020. Just four more years!!!

You asked and we answered!! Here is the first segment of the “Ask the Docs” Answer Session with Dr. May and Dr. Martin. We hope you learn something and enjoy!

Questions in this Answer Session:

1. Is there a cure for old eyes? AKA: Will LASIK fix presbyopia?

2. I’m diabetic and have trouble with my vision? Is there a connection?

3. I have been wearing my disposable contacts for a long time. Will this hurt my eyes?

4. My husband’s contacts are stuck in his eyes. How do I get them out?

Thanks to everyone that submitted questions!! We will continue to do these segments, so we will answer all of your questions. And keep them coming!!

Here’s the third installment of our popular take on “Ice Ice Baby.” There’s a verse about those who “aren’t allowed to wear” our glasses (this is all in jest, of course), a verse about all the cool folks that wear our contacts, and a bonus third verse about our favorite Vulcan and our favorite Friends character! We hope you enjoy!!

Lyrics: (by Andrew May & Barrett Martin)

Ok, the first two rounds we rapped about people, who wore our glasses, they were real keepers
So now we’re gonna tell you who’s not allowed to wear, if they showed up at our doors we would get them outta there!
Lord Voldemort and the old Willy Wonka, Kanye West, nein danke
Jafar and Janice and Jar Jar Binks, And Genghis Khan, he stinks!
Edward and Bella and President Snow, If Michael Vick asked we would say heck no
Rod Stewart when he’s seated, and Mother Gothel, The Kentucky Basketball team, because they’re awful
Sauron and the Emperor and Argus Filch, and New England football can’t wear zilch
Lance Armstrong, Barry Bonds, Tiger Woods, and Dennis Rodman can’t buy any of our goods
King George from the 17’s, Brutus from BC, Ivan the Terrible from 1533
Justin Bieber what a chump, the loser boyfriend of Jenny in Forrest Gump
All the cast from Star Wars Episode 2, and every single snake at the San Diego Zoo
So don’t give us a call at Johnson Optometric or check out my hook while my DJ revolves it

Change of subject, let’s talk about contacts, tons of people wear ours and that’s a fact
Leonard and Sheldon, Rachel and Ross are all in Dailies, wear once and toss
John Stockton rocks the toric, Mr. Bean cleans the sphere, and Flo the Progressive Girl has no fear
Mario and Luigi and Joan of Arc wear Multifocal contacts in the pitch black dark
Timberlake and Fallon and all of the Minions really like the N&D but it’s just their opinions
BB-8 and Elmo and Ulysses S. Grant would rather wear Toric Dailies then get cataract implants
The Cookie Monster and my main man Olaf try to beat each other in the visual acuity playoff
Taft and Nadal and Rodon and Barefoot, McCreery and McCrory and Chris Archer stay put saying
These contacts are a perfect ten, and speaking of tens, leave Alexander Hamilton
And give them a call at Johnson Optometric and check out his hook while his DJ revolves it

So how did we make it all the way to part three, without mentioning one very special VIP
He wears our glasses, contacts as well, he wears our sunglasses and looks so swell
His name is Spock, he is a Vulcan, his presence and his coolness and his awesomeness are hulking
Spock is the man, Nimoy or Quinto, we got him seeing so well he never has to squint-o
So otherwise, how you doing? Joey stopped by for glasses viewing
He likes the Very Bradley, he likes the Jimmy Choo, he likes how the Costas look on you
He says, “All day I dream about Adidas.” Bobbi Brown, Hickey Freeman, Ann Taylor really need us
Check out the Maui Jim, check out the London Fog, I like how those Banana Republics look on my dog
So many great frames and the staff is amay-may, not going to JOA is straight out cray-cray
So give them a call at Johnson Optometric, and check out his hook while his DJ revolves it
